T/P purchase Chev Van for his Sch C, as follows:

Base Price & taxes, & fees - 24,000 Finance Charges - 6,000

Total                       30,000


Originally it was setup for 22,000 - base price however I feel it should be caitalized for the total costs of $30k.

No money was paid up front...all financed.


Am I correct?

You are not correct.

Based on your statement of the facts Van $24,000.

The rest is interest over the life of the loan.
